Aug 23 | 17

Mark your calendars! Join Mayor Sylvester Turner, the Planning & Development Department (P&D), and other community representatives to kick off Complete Communities meetings in Acres Home, Third Ward, Second Ward, Gulfton, and Near Northside beginning August 29th.

Mayor Turner envisions a city where every citizen has the opportunity to thrive where they live. To facilitate this vision, the Complete Communities initiative was launched on April 17, 2017, and aims to improve neighborhoods so that all of Houston’s residents and business owners can have access to quality services and amenities. Acres Home, Gulfton, Second Ward, Near Northside and Third Ward are the first round of neighborhoods selected under this initiative.

Attend your neighborhood meeting to share the vision of what you want to see in your community! YOUR input and plans will help define what makes your neighborhood a Complete Community. Visit the Complete Communities website for more information on the initiative and meeting updates. You can also go to the P&D Facebook Events page to share the meeting event for your neighborhood with others, and while you’re at it, add #completecommunities and don’t forget to tag your neighborhood #AcresHome, #3rdWard #2ndWard, #Gulfton, or #Northside!
